What's it like driving a car whose steering axis is behind your arse?

The reason that I wouldnt ever buy one, not even the Subaru dressed up like a VW Type 2...
Did you see the episode of Fifth Gear a few years ago where fat Tom crashed one on an oval track, at a modest speed, and broke his leg?
That made me shudder.

GC8 said: Whats it like driving a vehicle which uses your femurs as its principal crumple zone? Exciting and stupid all at the same time.You just don't get that with modern motors! I would say it also makes you a better driver, but the heavy rain and subsequent slippery roads we had earlier today, would suggest otherwise

YouTube video of your ambush of a neighbour/family member/small child is a must  Nur, your plan for world domination is working  I shall be playing with these later!!

Gizmoish said: andyr30 said: Next on the frivolous purchase list is a power kite :-) You definitely need one of those. I've got one. Bought it June last year. It's been out of the packet once. On a day when it wasn't windy enough to take off.  I used mine on a really windy day at the beach. I'm not paticularly small or light, and I got dragged very quickly forward every time it got properly into the wind leaving long gouges in the sand. Amusing but I felt like I'd had a kicking the next day! Recent purchase for me was an LED Lenser P7, they were reduced on Amazon and a realy really bright torch is always handy....
